00:00I'm going to try and put a stop to the goal scoring antics of Messrs Sutton and Shearer.
00:06Clive Tilsey, the commentator at Ewood Park.
00:13Wilcox had come inside to create the space for Lusso.
00:19Taking on Echelund.
00:22What a kick.
00:30Ripley's found some space, Berg arriving late, Moncow turn it away for another corner.
00:36For which Southampton may be able to get better organised.
00:42They were caught a little off guard by the first one.
00:51Five minutes gone, Wilcox, Moncow's header, shot by Atkins.
00:56What a beauty, and it's come from Mark Atkins.
01:03Second Saturday running that he's upstaged, Shearer and Sutton.
01:07Robillard beaten by a well-struck shot which came through a lot of men between scorer and goalkeeper.
01:18Warhurst.
01:19Lifted away as far as Wilcox.
01:28Ripley.
01:29Wilcox.
01:31Shearer trying to get there.
01:32But it's been impeded by a hole that he was.
01:35Penalty given.
01:37Well, it was a difficult one for Alan Wilkie to call.
01:39But when Alan Shearer can't get where he wants inside the penalty area, a man of his strength, there's half a chance
01:46that somebody is doing something he shouldn't to stop him.
01:51Matt Letizia has said something he shouldn't.
01:55A yellow card for the skipper for descent.
01:58Now, on the opening day of the season, Bruce Graubelard saved an Alan Shearer penalty on his Southampton debut.
02:03The only penalty that Shearer has missed for Blackburn in the Premiership so far.
02:11He's saved it again.
02:12Shearer has scored.
02:18It's Blackburn 2, Southampton 0.
02:21And just for the record, it's Shearer 18, Sutton 17.
02:30Charlton.
02:31It's towards Maddison.
02:35It's not back for Widrington.
02:37It's the closest they come.
02:40Lucy!
02:42Lucy!
02:47Lucy!
02:49Berg.
02:55Muscle put Hendry under pressure.
02:57Hughes has played Letizia in here.
02:59And Matt Letizia and Southampton are back in business.
03:04And Blackburn unable to kill the game off when they were on top.
03:08Find themselves with a real contest on their hands.
03:1220 minutes of the second half gone.
03:14Some looseness from Blackburn inside their own heart.
03:17Punished.
03:19Emphatically by Matt Letizia.
03:21That's beautiful from Letizia into the path of Kenna.
03:33Maskell.
03:38Challenge by Lassau.
03:39Now a break-off, including Atkins, Sutton and Shearer.
03:47This is Atkins.
03:49And this is Shearer.
03:51And that's three.
03:52And the almighty scare that Southampton have given Blackburn Rovers may have come to an end.
04:04Alan Shearer's second of the afternoon makes it 3-1.
04:08And breathing space with 17 minutes to go.
04:11Straight to Wilcox.
04:17Straight to Widrington.
04:20Letizia.
04:25He's going for goal again.
04:26Oh!
04:27As only Matthew Letizia can score goals like that.
04:35As only he would even think of trying to score that kind of goal.
04:40Wonderful.
04:42Usual meandering twists and turns.
04:45Usual almost disinterested look.
04:47And then, bang.
04:49From nowhere, a perfect shot.
04:51Backed on by Maskell.
05:02Letizia's got a hat-trick chance here.
05:04And he's denied by his former teammates in Flowers.
05:09What do you think?
05:10Where he scored from a moment or so ago,
05:13that was just about an open goal.
05:14But somehow Flowers managed to block the line out.
05:17And Letizia failed to take the chance to equalise.
